Methylthiomethyl Ethers

Methylthiomethyl ethers are obtained in good yield from primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols by treating them with a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide, acetic anhydride and acetic acid. The methyl- thiomethyl groups are readily removed on heating the compounds with methyl iodide in moist acetone. The methylthiomethyl ethers are converted into methyl ethers by the action of 'nickel boride'.

The key precursor rac-2-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (3) was synthesized in good yield from Ibuprofen (1). One-pot three-component reactions of 3 with 5-aryl-furan-2-carboxaldehydes/ substituted aromatic aldehydes and monochloroacetic acid in acetic acid in the presence of acetic anhydride and anhydrous sodium acetate afforded substituted thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole derivatives 4 and 5. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by elemental analyses and spectral data. The compounds were tested for their in-vitro antimicrobial activities.

3-amino-6-(2-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide (3) and 2-carbonitrile analogue 5 were prepared by reaction of 3-cyano-6-(2-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethylpyridine-2(1H)-thione (1) with chloroacetamide or chloroacetonitrile respectively. Heating compound 3 with triethyl orthoformate led to the formation of pyridothienopyrimidinone derivative 6. Reaction of 6 with phosphorus oxychloride produced 4-chloropyrimidine derivative 7 which underwent some nucleophilic displacements upon treatment with thiourea, piperidine, morpholine or hydrazine hydrate to give the target 4-substituted pyridothienopyrimidines 8, 10a, 10b and 11 respectively. Reaction of compound 8 with methyl iodide or ethyl chloroacetate gave compounds 9a,b. The condensation of 3-amino-6-(2-thienyl)-4-trifluoromethyl-thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carbonitrile (5) with triethyl orthoformate led to the formation of methanimidate derivative 21 which upon treatment with hydrazine hydrate gave the target 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-4-imino-7-(2-thienyl)-9-trifluoromethylpyrido[3′,2′:4,5] thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine (22). The reactions of compounds 11 and 22 with some reagents namely; triethyl orthoformate, acetic anhydride, formic acid, acetic acid, acetylacetone benzaldehyde and/or diethyl malonate were carried out and their products were identified, in most cases as [1,2,4]triazolopyridothienopyrimidines via Dimroth rearrangement.

Oxidative Attack

Abstract Oxidation of rubber by oxygen in the presence of acetic anhydride leads to formation of highly oxygenated products containing a considerable proportion of acetoxyl groups. The residual unsaturation of the products of highest acetoxyl content, taken in conjunction with other analytical characteristics, indicates that three, rather than two, acetoxyl groups normally combine with each isoprene unit attacked. Although the bulk of the oxygen introduced is present in the form of acetoxyl groups, a portion occurs as carboxyl and carbonyl groups; also, whenever acetic acid is used (partly or wholly) in place of acetic anhydride, some free hydroxyl groups appear in the oxidized rubber. The proportions of carboxyl and carbonyl groups observed can be correlated satisfactorily with the extent of chain-scission occurring during the oxidation, the groups in question forming the new ends of the severed molecules. Hydrolysis of the acetylated products yields hydroxy acids, which readily undergo lactonic elimination of water. Acetic anhydride and acetic acid can clearly act as auxiliary reagents in autoöxidation reactions, and the detailed results obtained with rubber can be best accounted for on the basis of α-methylene peroxidation, followed by decay reactions involving incorporation of the auxiliary reagent as well as oxidative attack at the double bonds of the rubber.

Background: The need for suitable antibacterial agents effective against Multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria is acknowledged globally. The present study was designed to evaluate the possible antibacterial potential of an extracted compound from edible flowers of Moringa oleifera. Methods: Five different solvents were used for preparing dried flower extracts. The most effective extract was subjected to fractionation and further isolation of the active compound with the highest antibacterial effect was obtained using TLC, Column Chromatography and reverse phase- HPLC. Approaches were made for characterization of the isolated compound using FTIR, NMR and Mass spectrometry. Antibacterial activity was evaluated according to the CLSI guidelines. Results: One fraction of aqueous acetic acid extract of M. oleifera flower was found highly effective and more potent than conventional antibiotics of different classes against Multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacilli (MDR-GNB) when compared. The phytochemical analysis of the isolated compound revealed the presence of hydrogen-bonded amine and hydroxyl groups attributable to unsaturated amides. Conclusion: The present study provided data indicating a potential for use of the flowers extract of M. oleifera in the fight against infections caused by lethal MDR-GNB. Recommendations: Aqueous acetic acid flower extract of M. oleifera is effective, in-vitro, against Gram-negative bacilli. This finding may open a scope in pharmaceutics for the development of new classes of antibiotics.

3β-Acetoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-28,20β-olide (IIIa) reacts with acetic anhydride in pyridine under very mild conditions affording β-lactone IVa and γ-lactones Va and VIIa as condensation products. On reaction with pyridine, lactones Va and VIIa undergo elimination of acetic acid to give unsaturated lactones VIIIa and IXa, respectively. Similarly, the condensation of 20β,28-epoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-3β-yl acetate (IIIb) with acetic anhydride leads to β-lactone IVb and γ-lactone Vb; the latter on heating with pyridine affords unsaturated lactone VIIIb and 21-methylene-22-ketone Xb. The structure of the obtained compounds was derived using spectral methods, particularly 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy; structure of lactone IVa was confirmed by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract Separation of natural compounds directly from the crude extract is a challenging work for traditional column chromatography. In the present study, an efficient method for separation of three main compounds from the crude extract of Dracocephalum tanguticum has been successfully established by high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC). The crude extract was directly introduced into HSCCC by using dimethyl sulfoxide as cosolvent. Ethyl acetate/n-butyl alcohol/0.3% glacial acetic acid (4: 1: 5, v/v) system was used and three target compounds with purity higher than 80% were obtained. Preparative HPLC was used for further purification and three target compounds with purity higher than 98% were obtained. The compounds were identified as chlorogenic acid, pedaliin and pedaliin-6″-acetate.

The present study aims at assessing the effect of microwave irradiation against thermal heat on the production of N-acetyl-p-anisidine by acetylation of p-anisidine. The acetylation of p-anisidine under microwave irradiation produces N-acetyl-p-anisidine in shorter reaction times, which offers a benefit to the laboratories as well as industries. It also eliminates the use of excess solvent. Effects of operating parameters such as reaction time, feed composition, and microwave energy and reaction temperature on selectivity to the desired product have been investigated. The results indicate as high as a 98% conversion of N-acetyl-p-anisidine can be achieved within 12-15 minutes using acetic acid. The use of acetic acid as an acetylating agent against conventionally used acetic anhydride eliminates the handling of explosive acetic anhydride and also the energy intensive distillation step for separation of acetic acid. Organic solvent like acetic anhydride are not only hazardous to the environment, they are also expensive and flammable.
